The British Columbia Agrifood Year in Review 2015 outlines the remarkable accomplishments of the sector, with increases in farmgate receipts and processing sales, and a 20-per-cent rise in exports. That is a testament to the hard work and dedication of the entire value chain from gate to plate. The Government of Canada is pleased to foster growth in Canada’s agriculture and food sector by advancing key priorities for the sector, from trade, to innovation, to sustainability. We have gained access to China and Japan for B.C. cherries and peppers respectively, and I recently led a major trade mission to China along with a large group from B.C.’s agriculture and food industry. We are working hard to ratify the Comprehensive Economic and Trade Agreement with the European Union, which will virtually eliminate tariffs on our agricultural exports to the world’s largest market for food. At our research centres in B.C., we are exploring new crops and technologies to keep producers on the cutting edge, while reducing their environmental footprint. Our joint investments with the province of $427 million over five years under Growing Forward 2 (GF2) are helping to build a stronger industry in B.C., through initiatives such as those noted in this report. As Canada celebrates our 150th birthday this year, we can look ahead to even greater success. We are now working with B.C. and the provinces, territories and industry to draft a new policy framework in 2018 to keep B.C.’s agriculture and food industry strong and growing. Once again, thanks for your great work, and here is to another year of growth! Hon. Lawrence MacAulay PC, MP, Minister of Agriculture and Agri-Food 2 BRITISH COLUMBIA AGRIFOOD INDUSTRY | 2015 YEAR IN REVIEW BRITISH COLUMBIA AGRIFOOD INDUSTRY | 2015 YEAR IN REVIEW 3 A MESSAGE FROM THE Minister of Agriculture Welcome to the Ministry of Agriculture 2015 British Columbia Agrifood Industry Year in Review, an annual statistical summary of the B.C. agricultural and food and beverage sector. British Columbia is proud of our agriculture history. We are always looking at ways to continue building our worldwide reputation for producing innovative and great-tasting foods. By working together with our sector, we are seeing strong results. In 2015, we had record revenues of $13 billion for B.C. agrifood and seafood producers, and record exports of $3.5 billion. Net cash income for primary agricultural production also increased 21.5% in 2015 to $440 million, up from $362 million in 2014. The secret is out, B.C. products are in demand and enjoyed all over the globe and we want to build on this momentum and have a $15 billion dollar year industry in B.C. by 2020. The B.C. government has invested $8 million in our Buy Local program since 2012 to help B.C. companies find new customers in British Columbia. Meantime, a network of 13 international trade offices, B.C. trade missions, and innovation and market development funding have all supported opportunities and sales for B.C. businesses. We need young farmers, young business people and young leaders and this will drive the future of our sector. My message to those thinking of a career is that the future of the sector is bright. By working together, we will continue to build an even stronger B.C. agrifoods sector, with producers earning more dollars and supporting strong communities through the province.
